    Hello,

    Updating here, I sent the Defence after following all instructions and have now received a letter from the HM Courts & Tribunal Service saying they 'acknowledge receipt' and a copy will be served to the claimant.   

    It says if the clamant doesn't proceed the claim will be stayed - is there anything I should do at this stage? 

    thank you

    1) Study the 8 steps, because you are following them

    2) Edit your thread title to something more suitable like 

    Name of Parking company,  lawyers name,   court claim 2025

    So presumably 

    ECP, DCB LEGAL COURT CLAIM 2025

    Normal.

    As you already know from the first 8 steps.

    While your case is quietly working through the easy first stage letters that you know all about already, if you are angry about this farce and want to be part of the push to change things in future, it's very important that people like you join us to reply to the new Public Consultation.

    We're encouraging posters subjected to court claims to tell the Government NOW that:

    a) you have no faith in POPLA or the IAS and that there must be the SINGLE APPEALS SERVICE that the Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019 promised. As long as it is independent (and only ONE appeals service, not two involved in a race to the bottom) that will give a real option to resolve disputed cases out of court.

    b).  THAT THE ENRICHMENT OF 'DEBT RECOVERY FEES' MUST BE COMPLETELY BANNED. DISPUTED CASES ARE NOT SOLVED BY A THUG THIRD PARTY DEMANDING MORE MONEY AND DOING NO MORE THAN OFFERING A POINTLESS 'PAYMENT PLAN'.

    c). Tell them about your experience and that your case proceeded to a claim precisely because (a) and (b) above mean there is no option, no safeguard for consumers EXCEPT court.

    Responses are invited to the Consultation now:

    Do it in August pleeease! We will discuss it all in more detail in the coming weeks on that thread so do come back in a fortnight.
